Fin Lover Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Sorry, just suggestively shaped rocks. No bone texture, no symmetry or other characteristics of a skull. 11 Fin Lover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kmiecik Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 No. 2 Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balance Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Of all the possible fossils turned rocks so far this week you win first place for most reasonable fossil assumption. 😁 Jp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon tibbetts Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 It’s crazy that there’s tooth looking marks right where the jaw would be, totally get why you thought it could be what you thought. Save them they are really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save them they are really cool. I agree these rocks are interesting and certainly suggestive, but these weathering patterns are pretty typical for such a geologic object. If you search for petrified dinosaur, snake, reptile or lizard heads here on the forum or on the web there will be many, many similar examples.

Fossildude19 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 No bone texture, no bilateral symmetry, and no real skull morphology. These are suggestively shaped rocks. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 IPFOTM -- MAY - 2024 _________________________________________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Kane Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 I would brace for disappointment. It may be time to put down the rocks, and pick up the literature. Please do not hijack other people's threads. 3 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
